The Law of Conservation of Energy
The total energy of the Universe is
unchanged by any physical process.
The three kinds of energy are:
kinetic energy, potential energy, and rest energy.
Energy may be converted from one form to another or
transferred between bodies.

Work by a Constant Force
Work is an energy transfer by the application of
a force.
For work to be done there must be a nonzero
displacement.
The unit of work and energy is the joule (J).
1 J = 1 Nm = 1 kg m2/s2.

Work Done
In general, the work done by a force F is defined as
W  Fr cos
where F is the magnitude of the force, r is the magnitude
of the object’s displacement, and  is the angle between F
and r (drawn tail-to-tail).

Kinetic Energy
Example: The extinction of the dinosaurs and the majority of species on
Earth in the Cretaceous Period (65 Myr ago) is thought to have been
caused by an asteroid striking the Earth near the Yucatan Peninsula. The
resulting ejecta caused widespread global climate change.
If the mass of the asteroid was 1016 kg (diameter in the range of 49 miles) and had a speed of 30.0 km/sec, what was the asteroid’s
kinetic energy?

Gravitational Potential Energy
Part 1- Close to Earth’s Surface
Potential energy is an energy of position.
There are potential energies associated with different
forces. Forces that have a potential energy associated
with them are called conservative forces.
Not all forces are conservative, i.e. Friction.
MFMcGraw-PHY 1401
Ch06b - Energy - Revised: 6/25/10
17
Gravitational Potential Energy
Every conservative force has an associated potential function.
W = F Δx = mgΔxcos(0 )
W = ΔU = U f - U i = mgΔx(+1)
0
ΔU = U f - U i = mgΔx
F is equal in magnitude and opposite in
direction of mg. The object is raised a distance
Δx doing work against the gravitational field.
The change in U is positive
MFMcGraw-PHY 1401
Ch06b - Energy - Revised: 6/25/10
18
Gravitational Potential Energy
The change in gravitational potential energy (only near the
surface of the Earth) is
U g  mgy
where y is the change in the object’s vertical position
with respect to some reference point.
You are free to choose to location of this reference point
where ever it is convenient.

the box if it is placed on the table?

Now take the reference level (U = 0) to be on top of the
table so that yi = 1.0 m and yf = 0.0 m.



The results do not
depend on the
location of U = 0.

Total Mechanical Energy
Mechanical energy is
E  K U
The total mechanical energy of a system is conserved
whenever nonconservative forces do no work.
That is
Ei = Ef
or K = U.
Then if K increases U decreases and vice versa

U r   

where U r     0
It is convenient in this case to assign the zero of PE to a
point an infinite distance away.

GM1M 2
U r   

where U r     0
The potential energy can be viewed as the work required to
bring a second mass from infinity to its present position r.
Since we can a conservative force that has a potential we
don’t have to do the force x distance calculation.

where U  r =   = 0

The negative sign is useful in describing bound states,
i.e. A moon bound to an planet, as having a negative
energy. A positve energy state would represent a free
state, i.e. an unbound moon that had somehow bee
freed from its planet..

Planetary Motion
A planet of mass m has an elliptical orbit around the Sun. The
elliptical nature of the orbit means that the distance between the
planet and Sun varies as the planet follows its orbital path. Take
the planet to move counterclockwise from its initial location.
QUES: How does the speed of a planet vary as it orbits the Sun
once?

At point “B” the planet is the farthest from the Sun. At point “A” the
planet is at its closest approach to the sun.
Starting from point “B” (where the planet moves the slowest), as
the planet moves in its orbit r begins to decrease. As it decreases
the planet moves faster.
At point “A” the planet reaches its fastest speed. As the planet
moves past point A in its orbit, r begins to increase and the planet
moves slower.

Spring Force
By hanging masses on a spring we find that stretch 
applied force. This is Hooke’s law.
For an ideal spring: Fx = kx
Fx is the magnitude of the force exerted by the free end of
the spring, x is the measured stretch of the spring, and k is
the spring constant (a constant of proportionality; its units
are N/m).
A larger value of k implies a stiffer spring.
